My system specs are up. Didnt realize i had to allow it to be displayed. My ram is 2 512 generic 667mhz and 1 2gig Apacer 800mhz and i will be taking out the 512s in a couple of weeks when i get another 2gig apacer 800 stick, then ill just keep adding more till i reach the limit. Anyone have any experience with my problem before. Ive never heard of it happening

Looks to me like you are encountering a bit of Vdroop. That is that the voltage drops a bit under load, then returns to higher levels once the CPU isnt being used.

Not a huge issue, just make clocking higher a bit tougher. Usually the higher you OC the more volts you will need. With droop, you need to push even more volts to get what you want. This ends up creating alot of unwanted heat.

My MSI Neo2-FR sucks the big one when it comes to vdroop, though there is a pencil mod out there to help. I had to throw a lot of voltage to get my E7200 to 4.3 stable, but I can boot it to 4.5, just the vdroop doesn't let it run stable.
